Stock Car Racing History
Thanks, Jim. My wife and her best friend moved to Raleigh from Wilson, NC when they graduated from high school in 1965. That's where I met her in 1973, working for Southern Bell Telephone Co. Her best friend still lives in Raleigh and we now have relatives in Wake Forest, also. We used to race at Wake Co. Speedway on Friday nights in the early 70s. I've always been very partial to the Raleigh area.
